SUNLIGHT
OAO's signature model featuring its iconic stitched design. Equipped with a 5.8 cm Vibram sole for a soft, lightweight cushioned feel, the design is inspired by AKARI, the celebrated light sculptures of Isamu Noguchi.
SUNLIGHT PRIMA FLAT
A popular flat silhouette introduced this season as part of the SUNLIGHT Series. Featuring a Vibram® FUROCUP™ sole, it delivers a lightweight construction with excellent grip. The soft leather upper and pigskin lining gently wrap the foot for a comfortable, refined fit.
MONOLITH
One of OAO's signature and most popular sandal models. Combining the refined texture of leather with the soft, supportive fit of neoprene, it features Vibram® ProjectX sole technology to deliver a lightweight construction and exceptional comfort.
